Exegesis
The verse begins with the vav-consecutive plus plural imperative veimru {וְאִמְרוּ | wə-ʾim-rû} “and say,” signaling communal exhortation. It proceeds through three coordinated petitions, each introduced by an imperative or infinitive form that underscores urgent dependency on divine action.
In context — 1 Chronicles 16:35
And say, “Save us, God of our salvation , and gather us and deliver us from the nations, to give thanks to your holy name and to glory in your praise .”
